ABSTRACT:
A multi-channel mass flow transducer has a single laminar flow element in a primary fluid flow path and multiple secondary flow paths in parallel with and in fluid communication with the primary flow path. Flow restriction elements are disposed in one or more of the secondary flow paths to establish different flow rate measurement "channels" having particular flow rate ranges. The multi-channel transducer of the present invention is capable of measuring fluid flow rates over an extended range and eliminates the need for multiple transducers to measure varying fluid flows.
